Honestly, I was taken out of the plot of the final zone when you get there and Thancred is dead and literally no one cares except for a few lines from Urianger. Like, goddamn.
The fact that literally all of the Scions die in this moment just only served to hammer in how temporary it was going to be, especially when Y'shtola, notorious plot armor wearer that she is, outright says "By the way, your plot device can probably bring us back. But don't do it at the end of this zone.", which is later followed by Alphinaud making a similar remark!
Also, it's really weird to me that G'raha has this really great speech to the Omicron guy about helping him see through his malaise and feelings of being unable to move on, while Y'shtola and Estinien are kinda just like "Ehh, who cares?" to the people they talk to, which somehow still fixes things.
